Applied Mathematics MMath (Hons)

The MMath Applied Mathematics programme is a challenging five-year programme that takes you to masters level. It is designed for those who want to study in more depth, or who intend to use advanced mathematical and computational techniques in their careers.<br/><br/>Studying mathematics at university encourages you to think in an entirely different way. Through being introduced to new mathematical concepts not explored at school level, you will develop a rigorous mindset, and by the end of your programme, you will specialise in an area of your particular mathematical interest.<br/><br/>This new way of approaching and analysing complex problems is a particularly valuable skill, and will serve you well throughout your degree programme and beyond.<br/><br/><strong>Areas of study</strong><br/><br/>This programme covers a broad range of mathematical topics, from abstract methods to numerical computation, and it also emphasises their application to real-world problems.<br/><br/>The programmes modular structure enables you to specialise in areas of particular applied mathematical interest, such as mathematical physics or scientific computing.<br/><br/><strong>Option courses</strong><br/><br/>In addition to your mathematics courses in Years 1 and 2, you will study courses in other subjects. These may be in related areas such as physics or informatics, or from the wide and varied range offered across the University, such as philosophy or languages.<br/><br/>From Year 3 onwards, you will study your degree subject only.<br/><br/><strong>Flexibility between BSc and MMath</strong><br/><br/>You can change between the BSc and MMath Applied Mathematics programmes up until the beginning of Year 4, subject to strong academic performance.<br/><br/><strong>Programme benefits</strong><br/><br/><br/>* Study your subject in depth to masters level.<br/><br/><br/>* Our teaching fosters interactive engagement that promotes long-term understanding. It is enhanced by technology, including voting systems and online quizzes, and we actively encourage collaborative learning.<br/><br/><br/>* Employability skills are embedded in the curriculum. Our Student Development team and the Universitys Careers Service also give students careers support. This includes presentations from industry employers and alumni career showcases, which demonstrate the range of careers open to mathematics graduates.<br/><br/><br/>* We host regular workshops to help you prepare for applying to internships, jobs and further study.<br/><br/><br/>* The School of Mathematics has expertise in a variety of research areas, allowing you to tailor your degree to your area of mathematical interest.<br/><br/><br/>* This programme offers the option to begin your studies in Year 2 and study an accelerated degree programme.<br/>
